@mleighton Hello,

I have a question: what is the brand/model of the SFP nic inside the 8200 ?(I'm assuming there is a single nic behind the two ports?) Is it possible to have the reference?

From the description ethernet ports are using an intel i226 controller, but there is no information on the SFP ports.

The 10G SFP ports (ix0, ix1) and 1G combo ports (ix2, ix3) are all Intel X553.

Wow that's an impressive device. Rivals the Netgate XG-1541 with a lot less power requirement.
